Its just some filter I used on my camera phone (Instagram). Notice how the blurriness happens to clear up right where you see the bike? I'm not sure how I could blow my nose with a camera lens either.

I'm just razzin' you. I figured it was an instagram filter. The transition between the focused and blurred areas is kind of crude, but instagram is free... I'd bet the original pic is pretty cool though. And the bike looks nice. I didn't know the Nudes had the remote reservoir. What year?

One question guys, is it possible to use a Rockshox Sid XX World Cup 29er 2013 with the Twinloc System ? Because this suspension fork uses the Oil Xloc Remote Lockout, and the Twinloc uses the mechanical lockout system. Thanks

Great pics! I have a 2009 Spark 60. Mostly stock. I did install an Adamo Peak saddle. I also swapped the handlebars to another one which I have cut shorter than the stock handlebars. And some contoured grips. Oh and I think I have cyclocross tires on there at the moment. I will post some pictures when I can.

Home from the hospital...

Just picked up my Spark 930 yesterday. I have a set of 15mm/12mm thru axle Havens ready to go on, swapping over my XT brakes, Easton EC70 handlebar, and upgrading to XX cranks. The 930 seemed like the best bang for the buck with the upgrades I have ready to swap over plus I bought from REI and had it shipped to Oregon...no sales tax, REI gift card, and $380 rebate coming in March! Cannot pass up that deal!

I considered a 650b but went with the 29er for a couple of reasons. My 6'-2.5" body fits the 29er better and I race XC so the 29" wheels are well-suited for the job. I can say for sure that I will grab a 650b if I ever get a bike for all around riding, but nothing eats the trails at speed like a 29er. I will never return to a 26er. That's for sure!

I just got new Spark 910, here are some pics, sorry for bad quality i took them with my phone.
First impression is awesome, geometry, stability, its fast, brakes are great, more to come.
I will upgrade my bike a bit, new grips, maybe Ritchey wcs handlebar and seatpost.
I took treking pedals with spd and flat, since i ride with mtb and normal shoes.

Woodraider, and the rest of you Spark fans, with all these images and my last test ride on a new 27.5 inch, I may need to get a new bike!!!!!!! Love that Scott styling!!!!!......and the ride is awesome too.

A lot of nice looking Spark builds. I will agree, though, that the Scale is a nice bike too, but nothing beats a Spark. I think the better arguement for the masses here is......will your next Spark be a 26, 27.5 or 29 inch version???? I will start by saying that a 27.5" version will be mine one day!!!!!! Happy Trails Scott fans!!!!

ripped the hanger and totally destroyed my rear mech yesterday, so after getting sick of the 3x front end i've bitten the bullet and she is in getting some xx1 love now...

...back a page or so i mentioned i was on wheel upgrade path, ended up getting hope hubs, some random Ti spokes... and stans rims built up ~1350g for the pair without tape. was an excellent upgrade... sadly i'll have to go back to the stock wheels once the xx1 is on there until hope have their freehub body for xx1 ready to order.

I just put a Hope hub on my new front wheel to accept the 15mm front axle of my new Fox Float 32. Awesome hub, fork on an awesome bike!!!! Rode the 27.5 Genius (which now looks just like a Spark) and am torn if I want a new bike!!! The wheel size feels great!!!......and its a Scott........and its looks like a Spark!!!!! Maybe I should go get it........
